Senior Town Planner - Aberdeen, Edinburgh, or Glasgow
Location: Choice of Aberdeen, Edinburgh, or Glasgow
Salary: Competitive + Excellent Benefits + Clear Path to Associate
Type: Full-time, Permanent

Are you ready to step into a Senior Town Planner role where your expertise will truly shape the future of development in Scotland?

I'm working with a well-respected architectural and planning consultancy with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality projects across residential, commercial, and public sectors. This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious planner ready to take that next step in their career-or a current senior looking for a new environment where you can grow and progress to Associate level.

Why This Role?

* Location flexibility: Be based in Aberdeen, Edinburgh, or Glasgow - with hybrid working to suit your lifestyle.
* Reputation for quality: Join a multi-disciplinary team that has a track record of delivering nationally significant planning and urban design projects.
* Clear progression: This firm is serious about investing in its people, offering tailored support for your journey toward Associate and beyond.
* Collaborative culture: You\'ll work closely with talented architects, urban designers, and planning professionals in a friendly, innovative environment.


What You\'ll Be Doing

* Leading and managing a range of planning projects from initial strategy to successful delivery
* Preparing and submitting planning applications, appeals, and development plans
* Liaising with clients, stakeholders, and local authorities
* Supporting and mentoring junior planners
* Playing a key role in business development and client relationships


What We\'re Looking For

* MRTPI-qualified Town Planner
* Proven experience in development planning (private sector or local authority background welcomed)
* Strong understanding of Scottish planning policy and legislation
* Excellent report writing, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills
* Commercial awareness and a proactive attitude

Whether you\'re looking for more responsibility, a better work-life balance, or a defined route to progression, this is a genuinely exciting opportunity.

Interested? Send over your CV for a confidential discussion, or get in touch to find out more. If you\'re not quite ready to apply but want to understand if this could be a good fit, I\'m happy to talk things through.
